TOPIC: OVERCOMING THE TEMPTATION NOT TO GO FAR WITH GOD

The best of God is reserved for those who go far with Him.

SCRIPTURE:

And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me.

– Exodus 8:28.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The best of God is reserved for those who go far with Him.

Earlier in our studies, we saw two key proofs of dedication to God as worship and service (Matthew 4:10).

It is confirmed that profitable service equals productive living. When we serve God profitably, we live productively. And because the devil knows that there is profit in serving God, he does everything to fight your dedication to God and the dividends of that dedication. The devil wants a dedicated person to be lukewarm, lethargic and complacent because he knows that fervent service in God produces fire-full results.

Now, what are the temptations that hinder effective service?

i. It is the temptation not to go far with God (Exodus 8:27).

This is the first temptation that Pharaoh confronted the children of Israel with.

Exodus 8:28 says, And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: intreat for me.

Pharaoh seemed to have told Moses, “Do anything you want to do with God as long as you don’t go too far from Egypt.”

Today, the devil tempts and tells people, “Don’t be too serious with God. Don’t be a fanatic”.

Many serious-minded Christians were told: “Don’t carry church on your head. Don’t kill yourself. Do anything you want to do with God but take it easy. God understands.”

Beloved, please know that the best of God is reserved for those who go far with Him. Therefore, make up your mind to go far with God.

Remember this: The best of God is reserved for those who go far with Him.
